An Intro to Pysanky Eggs with Cate Broadbent

Last year during Lent, my friend Cate taught me how to make pysanky eggs and I thought the process was so cool that I knew I wanted to share it on my channel! She graciously agreed to be a guest in today’s tutorial. She demonstrates how to prepare and create a pysanky egg using an original design that she created.
